Hello guys..

i have some good news and some bad news...

the bad news first... after traveling the half an hour journey.... i found the old lady had lied..

they are mostly 1 litre left overs from previous spray jobs... and lots of them... (ill upload pic tomorrow)

which this means im not able to do full tins.. i can mix generic colours so for example dark blue... etc.


I still need to sort out the collection... so may find that i will have full tins etc.

ill keep you all posted

well if theres colours with the same code, mix them together into full tubs. or if not, i'll take a couple of blue's. a couple of whites and a couple of silvery ones(if any). haha

can you let me know what blue's you have tho? and how much are in the tubs. thanks

E-paints in Abingdon,when it comes to paint you should accept nothing less than the best,if you can take your car or a panel down these guys will try and get an exact match,they sorted out my cooper and also gave me a special flexible additive to put into the paint for my fibreglass flip front!!



Nothing special about the flexible additive. Its available from just about every paint supplier I know. Have used it on flipfronts, bonnets, arches, dashboards etc etc.

Must admit, paint shops are alot better then halfords and probally works out cheaper.

The paintshop we use is brilliant, wouldnt use any other in our area.

Where abouts are you based? Based up in preston Lancashire and looking for Snowberry white for a Mk2 Cooper.
Wondering also what type of paint it was, cellulose or two-pack?

Drop us a PM if possible to discuss how we can sort out picking it up/payment etc.

Cheers,

Matt :)
